Ducky Soars this Computex: New Gaming Keyboards with a Personality
One of the OEM superstars with mechanical gaming keyboards, Ducky Channel, released a vast lineup of keyboards across all known PC keyboard form-factors. We begin with a colorful set of Ducky x Faze Clan co-branded Ducky One Mini keyboards in the 60% layout, and the slightly larger Ducky One Mini in the 65% layout. There are several co-branded or themed variants of the One Mini 60%, including Sou Sou, Frozen Llama, and Faze Clan. We also spotted the full-size Ducky One 2 Keyboard co-branded with DJ Max, Ragnarok, Shiba Says, Dimanche (Alice in Wonderland), and the One 2 Pro co-branded with Neverland.
The larger One 2 keyboards feature Varmilo Iris Blue V2 EC switches with triggering pressure of 45 gf, and secture pressure of 60 gf, along with 19.5 mm springs that have factory lubrication. The One 2 Pro (Neverland) features stain-resistant R5 MDA keycaps, and factory-tuned stabilizers. The One Mini 60% Sou Sou comes with Cherry MX switches (Brown, Blue, Red, Silver, Black, and Silent, on offer).The keycaps use thermally transferred dye-sublimation technology on top of PBT keycaps, so the lettering is more durable than it looks. Ducky also showed us their ProjectD prototype, a 65% layout keyboard kit: it is a luxury-segment keyboard that uses high-end aluminium alloy and carbon fiber for its various body panels. From the looks of it, each keyboard is nearly hand-crafted, with a high degree of QA. Winding things up, we caught the Ducky One 3 Aura RGB. The entire keyboard is one giant frosty RGB diffuser, thanks to translucent AC keycaps. Among the switch choices are Kailh Jelly Box, Gateron Baby Kangaroo, and various Cherry MX models.

Just in case the RGB wasn't distraction enough from doing some actual thing on the PC. Lmao
